<p><em>WATCH my update on how Team Owens is helping Utahns during the shutdown <a href="https://x.com/RepBurgessOwens/status/1984323621075239420">here</a> or above. </em></p>

<p>As you may know, this is now the second-longest government shutdown in American history and Utah families are feeling it every day.</p>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>More than 40,000 Utah federal workers are furloughed or working without pay.</li>

<li>SNAP benefits are projected to run out on November 1, putting 86,000 Utah households at risk.</li>

<li>Small business loans and federal contracts are frozen, creating strain across Main Street communities.</li>
</ul>

<p>All because Senate Democrats refused to support a clean, nonpartisan bill to keep the government open.</p>

<p>I voted to keep the government OPEN and I’ll keep working to end this unnecessary shutdown.</p>

<p>My West Jordan and Washington, D.C. offices remain open, and our caseworkers are standing by to help with:</p>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Social Security, Medicare, and VA benefits</li>

<li>Small business or SBA loan issues</li>

<li>Passport and travel delays</li>

<li>IRS, USDA, or other federal agency cases</li>
</ul>

<p>If you or someone you know is being affected by the shutdown, whether it’s delayed benefits, travel questions, or help with a federal agency, please don’t wait.</p>
